Time to do some damage control!
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has offered an apology to Australian reporter Tracy Grimshaw for the sexist, homophobic remarks he made towards Grimshaw over the weekend.
A spokesman for Ramsay released the following statement to the media on Tuesday:
“He has unreservedly apologized both to her and anybody else who may who may have been upset,” the rep for the Hell’s Kitchen host told Sky News in the UK.
He continued:
“His comments relating to Tracy Grimshaw, who had interviewed Gordon the previous evening, were off the cuff and in response to heckling from the audience. His intention was to make a joke and indeed he did raise a big laugh at the time. However, with hindsight he realizes that his comments were inappropriate and offensive to Tracy Grimshaw. And he has unreservedly apologized both to her and anybody else who may who may have been upset.”
In case you forgot, Ramsay name-called Ms. Grimshaw a “lesbian pig” during a rant on Saturday afternoon while giving a public demonstration in Melbourne.
And what does Grimshaw think of the foul-mouthed chef?
She still thinks of Ramsay as an “arrogant narcissist”.
Ha!
